my dad just make me a really long cord to run all the way through my house **** thing is like 500 feet or so

maximum length for a piece of cat5 cable is 100 meters, or 328 feet. So its not 500

my wireless adapter works fine...

Why run 500ft of cat6 through your house? Hook your 360 to your laptop and it will work even better then 500ft of cable.

cat6?

Today there is no approved CAT-6 or CAT-7. While some folks are selling products they call Level 6 or 7, there aren't even specs for them, making CAT-5e the best available option. CAT-6 cable is being made with 23 guage conductor wire as opposed to the slightly smaller 24 guage for CAT-5e and also has a separator to handle crosstalk better.
Both CAT-5 and CAT-5e have 100 ohm impedance and electrical characteristics supporting transmissions up to 100 MHz. The differences between CAT-5 and CAT-5e show in all aspects of performance: capacitance, frequency, resistance, attenuation, and NEXT. CAT-5e components were designed with high-speed gigabit Ethernet in mind. While CAT-5 components may function to some degree in a gigabit Ethernet, they perform below standard during high-data transfer scenarios. CAT-5e cables work with ATM and gigabit speed products. Simply, if you are using a 100Mbps switch, get CAT-5e cable instead of CAT-5.

^^^^may be true idk....but maybe he made the wire himself and wants to call it that......! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

but seriously pm me ill buy the wireless....lol

Incorrect, Cat 6 DOES exist and is in use in many Gigabit Ethernet setups. Another good way to tell the difference is that Cat 6 has a plastic separator piece in it that separates the 4 twisted pairs, Cat 5 or Cat 5e doesn't have that. I have seen actual Cat 6 cable in use as it had the separator and was spec'd for 500MHz performance.

Thats what it did too, when I tried it. Then it screwed up all the connections on my laptop, so I stopped.
